My First Top - S2601

I'm taking a quick break from making slacks to do something different. Okay the real truth is that I've had this top cut out and used up a major portion of my pins. Not only that, I hate have UFOs laying around. I've had this pattern since this summer and recently saw it made up in a magazine and just loved it.

My fabric may be out of season but I just love it. I had two yards of it but I thought it was 60" wide. Much to my dismay it's only 45" and I had to do some creative pattern placement as well as use a different fabric for the midriff facings to make it work. So far this is what I have:

I hope to finish it by the weekend so that I can make more pants!
